tldr; no system failure is human error. if a human can cause this, then your system lacks adequate controls and mechanism. the root cause is the lack of controls, not the human error

false and dangerous analogy. knowing your number plate is comparable to knowing your phone number, rather than the real analogy of bugging your converation in the car. the number plate yields metadata about journeys, not the actual conversation.

"i mean people who argue for privacy would never have a problem with barcodes on milk"

overlapping b and i elements <p>he<b>ll<i>o w</b>or</i>ld</p>

contary to the article it can still be represented as a tree, by decomposing the children into their own nodes (so in this case characters become nodes with child nodes expressing what formatting is active, followed by the letter, and then turn of all the active formatting)

this statement needs some detail, "high meetings" is obscuring that meetings use the docs (not meetings with no agenda or lots of presentations). meeying use docs as the primary driver, be that a narrative or analysis of a dataset

Inertia is a thing, especially around mental models and ways of working. Its hard to change an early decision, because many other parts and people have subsequently made decisions ontop of that. Like the ship of theseus, replacing parts is possible, but the replacement needs to fit in the gap, and the inertia means even if you replace everything, its always a ship.

Something like games these by Jane McGonigal

https://janemcgonigal.com/play-me/

> I make alternate reality games: games that are designed to improve real lives or solve real problems. I’ve been making ARGs since 2001 — and you can watch trailers for a dozen of my favorite ARGs below.

> Many of my games challenge players to tackle real-world problems at a planetary-scale: hunger, poverty, climate change, or global peace, for example (see: EVOKE, World Without Oil, Superstruct)

its not a great statement for humanity whatever truth does come out. Why people focus on HR when if this is true then the issue is a failed company culture. No amount of great HR can fix bad culture - thats sits with the founder, board and management - and every other employee who turns a blind eye. if it is true, is the company worth or even possible to save? Changing their name wont fix the culture.
